I am a roofing contractor now and understand there are multiple trades when doing this, however, I wanted to get a better idea of which trade comes after the other.

Also not exactly sure which state I'd want to invest in.Questions for you who do this successfully:1.

And by little, I mean $50k-$60k.I was just listening to the latest episode about what to do with $50k and it’s talking about using that as a down payment, which would get you a house for, say,  $180k - $200k.

Rarely do you hear of landlords who fit the profile I just described complain about “unfair”  or “tenant friendly” landlord tenant laws.

Do you need everything?

I look for someone that can advice me on what to do with my money.

I don't know if you're trying to do this all with the same lender, but if you're taking up a majority of the office buildings, SBA could be an option which would allow you potentially less down and you can get away with some seller carry (not all lenders allow and/or structure this but some do)...and/or you could potentially wrap in more collateral (like that other property) which some will do (Again not all SBA lenders are the same; some get way more creative than others). 

Some work I can do myself, but for time purposes, would hire out.

Apparently there are some cities in LA County like Santa Monica and Inglewood which do not allow this.How do you check which cities allow/disallow SB 567 "just cause" eviction through "substantial remodels?"

If you have experience in this, what are the cons/pros about doing a deal like this?
